The Sword of Peter
Summary
The search for the legendary Sword of Peter... Two thousand years ago, when the Romans came to arrest Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, the disciple Peter cut off the ear of an innocent man. Jesus rebuked Peter and quickly healed the servant's ear - and the Sword of Peter took on supernatural powers. Fast forward to modern day where a Biblical archaeology quest for the Sword of Peter is imperative to both Israel and to the Christian world. It's also a race against others who would possess and use the Sword of Peter for their own purposes, if they find it first. When Peter cut off a soldier's ear with the sword, he was probably trying to cut off his head. A poor aim. Martial arts expert Dr. Sam Godfrey is the youngest professor retired from the Zion School for Biblical Studies. Achava previously left the Staff of Moses with him for safekeeping, and on that adventure, he fell in love with her. That path toward a romance seems forbidden because of her spiritual duties and divine destiny. A clan called the Sentinels believes that Sam has the sword. When they attack him in his home, he fights them. Using supernatural means, Achava shows up and helps him to defeat the intruders who have almost debilitated him with a mysterious powder. Achava needs to take Sam to Israel to save him. They meet up with Saeem, Achava's longtime Arab friend who is dedicated to helping her locate and protect.

Under the Blood Moon
Summary
Eric has a gift - a gift of premonition and a supernatural connection to the blood moon. As well as the physical signs of the times - extreme weather, violent earthquakes and more - what Eric sees in his prophetic dreams may be warnings that God's plans for Israel are coming to fruition. Eric's sister, Sybil, believes he is a messenger to the world and that something big is coming. And it's something bad. Dr. Caladasian is the head of research at the Dream Institute in Seattle, Washington. He's a scientist who refuses to dabble in pseudoscience, but he does have a way to record people's dreams. Torn between her loyalty to her brother and her desire to view his dreams, Sybil makes Eric into Dr. Caladasian's unwitting research subject. Astounded by what they see on the video of Eric's dream, Sybil and Dr. Caladasian are invited to a panel where they meet Solomon Dancer, a Messianic Jew with knowledge about the blood moons - their meanings, and the events as they relate to the Jewish calendar. Solomon believes that Eric's dreams are a message to the Jews. Someone else is interested in Eric's blood moon dreams, too. Separated from Sybil during the chaos of a disaster, Eric is kidnapped by someone who wants him to track the blood moons and aims to learn his secrets - the kidnapper is having the same types of dreams. Now parted, the siblings pray for each other that they may be spared in the coming Battle of Armageddon. There is only one way to save themselves - their acceptance of Jesus as their Savior. Traumatic events are occurring, but is Eric really the chosen one to tell the world that the end of days is upon them? From the Bible and from Eric's prophetic dreams, they know what's going to happen. The big question is when. Will any of them survive the coming end of days that God’s word promised would wipe out most of the human race?

Warrior Woman
Summary
Four thousand years ago, as the Israelites drove the Canaanites from the Promised Land, they met more than human resistance. They encountered evil giants which had been born from the unholy unions of fallen angels and human women. In Warrior Woman, acclaimed Christian author Summer Lee unfurls a standalone adventure romance that expands Biblical history into a fantasy of epic proportions. Achsah, a young woman, is assigned the divine mission of saving her people from the most evil giant of all. When the adventure begins, Achsah is chosen as official lookout for all of Israel. Her job is to alert her father, a military chief, when she sees the enemy coming. Between hunting for giants, visions from God, and saving people, Achsah is romantically pursued by two soldiers. The older man is a distant cousin - he's a widower with a young daughter who pulls at Achsah's heartstrings. The other man is young and handsome, but his humble birth and lack of station in Jewish society mean he is not prime marriage material for the daughter of a war chief. Only her father has the power to choose her husband and neither of Achsah's suitors measure up. When the vile giant poses an imminent threat, not just to everyone she loves, but to the entire fate of the Israelites, Achsah knows she must be obedient to God and slay the giant. Achsah is an unsung, anointed heroine who is filled with God's strength and goodness, which will help her fight for the most precious treasure of all: the claim to the Promised Land. Warrior Woman contains spiritual quests, danger, clean romance, betrayal, and redemption, with all of the excitement that listeners have come to love from the remarkable pen of Christian author Summer Lee.
